The complete lack of documentation that matches the current software version makes this app problematic for serious photographers, which are its target audience. Simply put, the current "Quick Start" guide does not match the current software and there is no longer a full manual available. Why is this important? The iPhone camera and image processing pipeline have become more sophisticated, providing technology such as "Deep Fusion" and "Smart HDR," to provide enhanced imagery, and night mode, for low light situations. There is no way to know whether and/or how these technologies are used in Procamera's different camera modes. For example, HDR mode does not support ProRAW format. Does this means that Smart HDR is not used here? Does Smart HDR work into photo mode when parameters, such as shutter speed, are manually changed? (I suspect that Apple's Smart HDR has essentially replaced Procamera's HDR, but both still sit in the application.) More fundamentally, it is frustrating to refer to the Quick Start guide and find that the software does not work as documented. This app has been around for many years and has not cleanly adapted to the changes in the iPhone camera system. As far as documentation goes: the developers have simply given up.

UPDATE: I was so excited when I saw they updated it to iPad and you can actually turn to landscape no issues and have the entire screen. But, now the auto adjustments are HORRIBLE! It used to get it right most of the time and I’d have to make little adjustments once in a while. Now it’s always waaaay too dark or waaaay too light. If I try to increase lighting to help it, then it’s waaaay too light and whitewashes everything. It’s crazy! It’s really frustrating using it like this!

ORIGINAL REVIEW: This app was great! I absolutely loved it to be able to shoot professional quality photos with my phone. However, sometimes I want to shoot landscape mode. With the app previously, I was able to turn my phone and get the app to go landscape. It sometimes was a little touchy and would turn the whole app to go vertical again, but it usually wasn’t an issue. Now, it’s so touchy! I can only get it to go landscape if I am VERY slow about it and at a slight angle. Then when it’s landscape you have to have the phone flat. If you want to take it with the phone at an angle, the app instantly turns to be vertical again. It’s seriously annoying! There should be a way to lock it in vertical or landscape and then unlock it when you want. That seems simple! I also wish they had a way to e recording video and restart so I didn’t have to create multiple videos and piece them together or cut out things.

I was very excited to use this and take full advantage of my iPhones capabilities but I haven’t found this app to be worth $8 ( even more after in app purchases). Shooting on an iPhone XS Max. The HDR modes all look terrible in my opinion (don’t buy the upgrade!). Taking pictures is slower and more clunky compared to native app. I like the curves and some of the editing features but it doesn’t feel like I’m getting much more than the adjustments I can do with the camera app. Lowlight (not +) takes way better low light pics than the native camera app so that’s the only thing I use it for so far. Colors without tweaking seem even more flat and desaturated than the already flat iPhone colors which I also don’t love without adjustment.

I hate writing this because I had high hopes but again, just not worth the price, ESPECIALLY with the add ons... $8 plus in app purchases seems like a crime for what you get. Not worth more than cheaper apps like camera+. I find myself preferring the native camera app 9/10 times :( Wish there was a refund option... sorry ProCamera team.
